Differentiating Pulseless Electrical Activity from Other Diseases
- Asystole: In asystole, there is cessation of any cardiac activity and lack of cardiac output on this basis. In PEA, electrical activity is present.
- Ventricular fibrillation: There is no organized electrical activity present. There are only fine fibrillatory waves present in ventricular fibrillation. In PEA, there is organized electrical activity.
- Peripheral arterial disease: The inability to feel a peripheral pulse may be due to severe peripheral arterial disease.
